- In this episode we build a waterfront structure using three kits from Fosscalemodels and we also do some scratch building. Another fun episode full of tips and techniques. Hope you enjoy the video and happy modeling everyone!!!
Outstanding structures. The metal roofs look great. I can't wait to try the pealing paint. Thanks again Hal
Things I love about this video: a) the amazing sketch; b) the customisation; c) the inspiring productivity; d) the playful experimentation; e) the promotion of small model companies; and f) the fondness for coffee. Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate it!!! 👍☕️
100% agree
I agree another 100%.
A Train, I saw a Train. Really. Finally after 25years😅 Stunning Layout.
Lol, Thank you so much!!! 👍
That is a truly impressive layout. I'm looking to do individual dioramas but there is plenty to learn from your projects.
Thank you so much Paul!!! I truly appreciate it!
I just came across your channel , thank you for uploading so many wonderful videos.Peace.
Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate it!!!

Those trains running through the layout looked so great! And, the drawing you did of this building looks fantastic. Thanks again!
Thank you so very much Ed!!!
Jason, after watching so many of your videos, I really enjoyed seeing more of your trains running in the cut scenes between build segments . Thanks and keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Michael, I really appreciate it!!!
you are the master in house building. Thanks for showing. Greetings Tino
Thank you so much!!! I always appreciate hearing from you! Thanks for your support!!! 👍
I just can smell the harbour and the sea! Some seagulls sounds and i would like to walk there around. This isn't only modell railroading, it is a remind of the cities how they were bevor all went to chrome and glas and concrete.
Thank you so much Matthias!!!
i like the evolution of this project so much fun to watch
Thank you so much!!! 👍
Beautiful work! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼I would love if you add some seagulls on the roofs
Thank you so much and thanks for the suggestion!!! I’m sure in the future I will add some seagulls!
I love the thought that went into this building.
Thank you so very much Bob!!! 👍
excellent as always friend
Thank you so much Oscar, I really appreciate it!!! 👍
JUST PURE TALENT! Awesome job Jason!
Thank you so very much!!! 👍

I love it, Jason, just love it! Thanks so much for posting!
Thank you so much Norm!!!
Love seeing those Western Maryland locos!
Thank you!!! I’m looking forward to getting more bench work done and more track layed some day. It’s all about the journey! Thanks for watching!!!
Great work as ever. Nice to see those train shots too.
I appreciate it Chazzy!!! 👍
Thanks for letting us see some trains run through all your hard work!! Inspirational as usual!!
Thank you so much for watching!!!
Amazing work Jason, you always raise the bar and your never scared to try new techniques, thank you again for posting.
All the best
Gary.
Thank you so very much Gary!!! I really appreciate it!!
Hay Jason, been busy doing something that has keep me from doing some railroading. Back now and starting to do scenery for I have gotten the wiring almost completed. I had to turn to your channel to solve a dilemma I had gotten into with a train tunnel. Brother you saved me and I must say you are so incredibly talented just a genius. This video like all your videos are so detailed and your ability to teach and instruct are off the chain. Jason, I give you a billion thank you and I know I could turn to you to solve my problem. Have a wonderful safe Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Thank you so much for the kind words Johnny!!! I really appreciate it!! 👍
Awesome job as always Jason you are a master craftsmen you give great advice and how to do things that make a model pop and come alive
Thank you so very much Thomas!!! I truly appreciate it!! 👍
That frisket technique really does look amazing!
Thank you so much Norm!!!
Fantastic! This one definitely needs a Popeye figure. Amazing details and its not a problem to make mistakes, some times they can be happy accidents. As always thanks for sharing 👍😁
Thank you so much Alex!!! I always appreciate hearing from you! Have a great day!!!
so awesome Jason. I wish I had space to workshop stuff like this. I live in a one bedroom apartment...LOL
Love how this layout is coming along!
Thank you so very much!!! 👍
Hello Jason, the way of peeling the color is very nice. I have to do is also😉😃
Greetings from Franconia
It’s a very nice technique! I’ll be using it more. Thanks for watching!!! 👍
Super awesome build Jason!!👌🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much Hayden!!! 👍
The more I watch the more I learn, the more I learn the more I realize I don't have that amount of time to do all the thing's I've learnt. And the time I need to do what you have shown me ARHGG! just keep modeling and get on with it. LOL. Cheer's John
LOL! Thank you so much Johnny!!! I really appreciate it!!!
So creative… amazing
Thank you!!! I really appreciate it!
Morning Jason. Great post as always. I've used the rubber cement techniques for years now. It does take a little practice in the beginning, but the effects are well worth the time and trouble. It was really nice to see some train action. Take care, be safe and have lots of fun railroading.
Thank you so much John!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
Great build, Jason. You never know what you'll find in old boxes. My heart lept when I saw the WM GP40s in circus colors!
Thank you so much Greg!!! Some day I need to weather those GP40’s
Jason, your work is incredible!
Thank you so very much Keith!!! 👍
Well, I've been able to catch up on the last three videos you've uploaded and have enjoyed them as always. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it!!
Another fantastic build video. I am always impressed by your builds.
I always learn new techniques and creative ideas that I can use on my layout. The rubber cement for paint chipping effect is a new one for me and I plan on trying it out. Thanks for shareing these different techniques. Look forward to watching your next video and the progress on your layout. Be safe and keep on modeling.👍🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
Thank you so very much Ronald!!! I really appreciate it!! 👍
SO beautiful work. Looks awesome. Greetings
Thank you so much!!! 👍
Another masterful Jason build! =D
Thank you so much Samantha!!!
Man, I wish I could do a tenth as well as you. Fantastic work/ drawing/ kitbashing/ etc. Glorious.
Thank you so much!!! Lots of practice!
Another outstanding video Jason! You rocked another kitbash with some awesome kits. going to have to try out that rubber cement method or get some Miskit!
Thank you so much buddy!!! I always appreciate hearing from you! 👍
Very inspiring !!!!
Thank you so much!!!
Jason, yet another great video.
I think your should make a tee-shirt up "Let's drink coffee, and run trains". It would be a best seller.
It was great to see the transition from drawing (which was awesome), to nearly completed.
The technique with the rubber mask is amazing.
Keep us inspired.
Cheers, Michael
Thank you so much Michael!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Another great build I have said it before you have such a great talent keep up the great work thanks. Jason 😀👍
Thank you so much Michael, I really appreciate it!!! 👍
Another inspiring episode, but what I really enjoyed was seeing trains run!
Mike B.
Thank you so much Mike!!!
Thanks Jason, Great Vid as always.
Thank you so much Rick!!! I always appreciate it!!
Loving your work and video format..new sub.
Thank you so much Gary, I really appreciate it!!!
Really amazing.
Thank you so much Paul!!!
Amazing how fast you are and still achieve an absolute stunning result. Great work and another superb video.
Greetings Urs
Thank you so much buddy, I always appreciate it!!!
Great video Jensen, really enjoyed it.. thanks..
Thank you so much Keith!!! 👍
Dear Jason, an other fantastic creation for you, and an other marvellous dream for us, I don't no if I drink a little too much but I heard seagulls during the video !!!
LOL, Thank you so very much Michael!!!
@@JasonJensenTrains You very welcome, I would like modeling just few houses in order to make just a little waterside, but we can't get your kits in europe, that is just too bad and sad !!!
Well done my friend!
Thanks buddy!!! 👍
Great as always thank you Jason
Cesar
Thank you Cesar!!! 👍
Lol, yet more buildings, brilliant as usual but when are you going to bite the bullet and do the scenery? That's what I'm really looking forward to xx
Lol, all in good time. Thank you so much for watching!!! 👍
I guess I missed the video when the kits were put into the box…because I missed some key building facts that I discovered AFTER I started building this for my 4’ X 6’ waterfront layout. It is mentioned that the side walls for Tower Two are lengthened, but no mention of narrowing the front and back walls of Hooper’s Oysters along with modifying the entire left side (no stairway). It was after I built a beautiful pier with the proper placement of the joists that hold the pilings in place when I discovered this. Not complaining BTW, just giving a heads up to those wanting to copy the build. Make sure you pay close attention to the videos BEFORE you jump in and start cutting/glueing!
Very nice
As usual Jason a really cool build. As Heath said please Foss do N Scale
Thank you so much Chris!!!
Cool peeling paint effect, I wonder if that material is like liquid latex? im sure it works similar. I have seen people use pva glue as a mask for plastic and you just peel it off too. Cool to see some trains running. Might I suggest some Showcase miniatures wig wag signals for your crossing near the rolling lift bridge. They have several different non operating models to choose from and very well priced. Cheers Rob
Thank you so much Rob!!! I really appreciate it!!
I love the excitement of rediscovering an old project and picking up where left off.
Really amazing drawing, do you do this for all of your kitbash and scratch build projects?
Have you done the salt technique for weathering paint? I am curious how that compares to the contact cement.
I really wish Foscale models did an N scale kit of the month club. I am jealous of all the kits you have to work with.
Same here Heath
Thank you so very much!!! I really appreciate it!! I’ve done the salt technique but I feel I have more control with the rubber cement. I use to draw my kitbash projects but now I just start building, maybe I’ll start drawing again. Thanks for watching!!!
very nice thanks man
Thank you so much Joe!!! 👍
Awesome as usual. There are so few choices in n scale. I’m still on a learning curve and wish I could find more options. But on the other hand, my layout is about full. I’m really thinking dioramas in ho scale. Hahaha, or another layout. 😂😂😂
I’m getting braver so who or where would you recommend for scratch building supplies? Siding, windows, doors, etc. in ho scale.
Thanks Jason
Thank you so much Gene!!! I buy wood from Northeasternscalelumber.com and windows and doors from Tichytraingroup.com
Hi Jason... I am enjoying your work very much. You've inspired me to tear down my flat O scale layout and completely rethink it. I am going to try my hand at a wood kit. Does the bracing wood come with the kit or is that separate?
Thank you so much James!!! The bracing comes with the kit. Thanks for watching and happy modeling!
Ha ha! ;-) I just went through all my boxes and listed everything therein. I'm planning on not buying anything until most of it is used up........yeah, we'll see how that goes!
LOL! , good luck with that! I’m always buying more, it’s a problem 😂
@@JasonJensenTrains I have no will power either! ;-)
Jason , your`e good !
Thank you so much!!! 👍
hey Jason another great build as always
what company do you get the pier decking from?i have not been able to find it that wide.
thanks
Thank you so much Glenn!!! Northeasternscalelumber.com
A lifetime piece of work. Can this be insured? What would something like your setup be valued at.
If you didn't use the supplied end walls on the main building (the first building modeled in your video), what did you use? You said you were going to make them a little longer, so did you have some spare material from another project that just happened to have the same clapboard siding configuration?
I buy sheets of clapboard siding from Northeasternscalelumber.com
Great build! Can you show how you store and label your strip wood and scale lumber?
Thank you!!!
Hey Jason another great build. Watching you think outside the box and having great results. Are you planning on doing a card stock building like you showed on a video months ago? I am going to try the rubber cement technic on a wood kit in N scale may have to use a micro throw away brush. Very cool drawing and results
Thank you so much buddy, I always appreciate it!!! I’m planning on doing a card stock video in the future. Stay tuned….
Try corn husk for corrugated roofing.
Jason, just wondering if you have ever used any kits from Campbell Scale Models? What are your thoughts on them?
I have not. I’ve gotten spoiled with the quality of the newer companies as far as laser cutting and instructions. I personally feel like to much work for me with putting together a Campbell kit, but that’s just me. Some people enjoy the extra work of doing lots of measuring and cutting.
Great work!
Do you sometimes have visitors coming to see your fantastic layout?
Thank you so much!!! I have had a few people over to see it but I have not had a open house to the public yet.
@@JasonJensenTrains If I would live near you, I would love to see it in real. But at least we can see it on video, so thank's for that! :)
Hi Jason what size / scale timber did you use for the pier on the pillings deck and rafters thank you
I think they are 3/16 wide
Well, you can says you made a OO scale British trains modeller jump the gun and try some Fos Scale kitbashing. I purchased the yard building sets 1 and 2 to make a goods yard coal dealer for my OO scale 1944 era layout project. And it also may push me to get back into us modelling and design my own lasercut buildings as I will need a diorama to showcase 1900 to 1920's era locos & wagons I still have around although I have made the switch to UK prototype... (FYI I design lasercut card buildings kits for a Belgian model trains producer in HO).
Also have you already tried the new MIG acrylic filters ? I use massively the shaders and may use one or the other mixed with a bit of acrylique washes to stand the wood as the stains you use are not available here on the continent and are too expensive to have shipped by two or three bottles...
Exciting!!! It sounds like you have some fun modeling plans! Happy modeling!!!
What is going on with the stacks of foam in the back of the layout?
It all gets covered in scenery! Thanks for watching!!!
These are very nice buildings where do you get them from
Dude with the peeling paint effect should change the name to "Keep It Crusty."
This was my fear all along. Spending years watching you build this Selios inspired layout only to see you run SD 40's on it. OH! The humanity!!
LOL!!!! Thanks for watching David!!!
Our layers on layers different different spots of the different paints that you have do it with the brown stain the white to the patch of the rubber cement to another paint like that green cask touchup rub it off they are on layer like the building has been multiple paintedand then settle for the last one to be chipped also
Also, I have a question: How do you deal with dust on the layout? Thanks again for the inspiration!
He builds another structure and sweeps it under there! ;-)
Try to keep air moving around the layout. Try running a fan for a little while once a day.
sHi Jason super video🇨🇿🚂👍😉🍻😍🚂
Thank you so much!!! 👍
WOW. Well above my payscale, but WOW.
Thank you!!! 👍
resistance what is the diameter size?
I'm thinking Cannery row....
You make it look so easy! I purchased my first kit. Unlike plastic models. These instructions suck!!!
Jason, I would be especially interested in how you create your large lettered signs: "FISH" and "BAIT", etc. Also like your idea of a video on finishing your structures. It seems like you quite often say "now I'll install the acetate" and in the next shot, all windows are complete and installed! I'd really like to see how you deal with the tricky problems like installing the window glazing you forgot, and so on.
LOVE the Miskit tip! I've got some coming from Amazon tomorrow...
Also, I know you've made a conscious decision not to install working lights, but you really should check out the gooseneck lamps made by Evan Designs. These look identical to the Tichy lamps you normally install, except they light up! (Of course, you need to do some wiring...)
Thank you so very much!!! I have some older videos that show the full process on certain techniques. Stay tuned for the signs….
@@JasonJensenTrains FIRST, let me say that I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I found the first one I watched - #13 Applying Paper Shingles - with a google search last May. Since then, I have systematically watched all but about 20 of your videos (still working my way through your list...) Your videos have allowed me to up my game by one or two notches: under your guidance, I have kitbashed my first wood structure and I have scratchbuilt my first wood structure. So thanks for that - I am in your debt.
In watching those videos back-to-back-to-back, I have come to realize that you always take care to show us how to brace and stain the walls; you have shown us many times how to paint and place details; you have shown us many times how to apply paper signs to walls - both as "painted" murals and as "metal" signs. But consider episode #21 How to Build a Pool Hall: At 17:50 in the video, you cut quickly from painting the brick walls to painting windows, and you have already added signs to the walls. Many of the signs are paper signs that use techniques you have shown before, but the most striking sign - the vertical "POOL" sign - is not mentioned or described in any way. Is it a decal? Did you use a stencil? If so, did you make your own stencil and if so, how? Or did you buy it somewhere? This is one example of some critical details that I feel you sometimes omit from your videos.
I'm truly sorry if this seems overly critical - I certainly don't mean to be critical. Back when I lived in Denver (and when Caboose Hobbies was still in business), I would attend the weekend clinics they held on nearly every aspect of model railroading. Watching your videos is like attending an advanced clinic in building model railroad structures. But, you are a victim of your own success: you have us hooked on your modeling heroin and we are craving more and more!
Thanks again for all you do and keep it up.
Really great video, however, I wish you would show more of the building and painting process, even if it's sped up. I understand it would require much more time editing the video, however, you have some of the most realistic and beautifully painted mini builds and I find it sad that a lot of the process and technique is lost in the video, as you tend to jump ahead.
That being said, I don't mean any disrespect, your builds are amazing!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!! Some of my older videos show the full process. Thanks for watching!!!
@@JasonJensenTrains Thank you for responding. I will definitely take a look at your older videos!
Two weeks no video. Hope all is well.
Super busy with work. I am finishing all my bench work for the layout. New video coming soon……
How can you, totally, forget $ 127 worth of building kits
Because I just keep getting more kits, LOL!!! 😂
@@JasonJensenTrains As long as you build them all for us!!
